SEXUAL HEALTH

Here are tips to clean your sex toys properly. It is important to properly clean your toys to keep them maintained and also for sanitary reasons. If you plan to share your sex toy with a partner, we recommend using a condom to prevent the spread of STDs and other bacteria, in addition to proper cleaning.

When you first receive your sex toy, make sure you clean it prior to using it. In addition, check your toys to make sure there are no rips in the silicone, rubber, or jelly.

Look over your glass and hard plastic toys to make sure there are no cracks. Any tears or cracks in the product can trap bacteria, and cannot be cleaned properly.

Sex Toys Made of Rubber/Jelly: Sex toys that are made of rubber or jelly are porous and can trap dirt and bacteria. You can clean these toys with a gentle anti-bacterial soap and water. If you are going to use antibacterial soap, make sure all the soap is gone completely from the product to prevent any damage to the toy or irritation to you.

There are numerous sex-toy cleaners on the market that we would advise using that are made specifically to clean sex toys such as Before & After Toy Cleaner and Pjur Med Clean. We do recommend using a condom on these products to ensure the utmost safety. Let air dry or wipe with soft cloth.

Sex Toys Made of Silicone: Products made of silicone are nonporous, which means they do not absorb bacteria like jelly toys. Use a sex-toy cleaner or gentle antibacterial soap and water to clean. Silicone sex toys that are not battery operated or do not contain an electrical system can be boil for about two minutes. Let air dry or wipe with soft cloth.

Sex Toys Made of Hard Plastic or Acrylic: You can use a sex toy cleaner or gentle antibacterial soap and water. Let air dry or wipe down with a soft cloth.

Sex Toys Made of Glass, Pyrex, or Stainless Steel: Use a sex-toy cleaner or wash with gentle antibacterial soap and water. You can also boil or place your glass or Pyrex toys in the dishwasher if they do not contain a battery compartment or any electrical system.

Sex Toys Made of Realistic Materials Such as Cyberskin, UR3, Soft Touch, Futurotic, and Neoskin: These types of materials are typically used in erection rings and male masturbation toys, such as sleeves and realistic vaginas. Wash these products with warm water and antibacterial soap. After a thorough cleaning, let the product air dry completely. Then, apply a light coating of cornstarch to the product to keep the product maintained and fresh.

With any sex toy, make sure that you store it in a cool, dry area. Avoid direct sunlight and always remove the batteries prior to storing.
